Compliance Requirements for Pharmacies in IL
Illinois pharmacies are subject to both DEA regulations governing controlled substance waste and EPA/RCRA standards that apply to hazardous pharmaceutical waste disposal.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should Pharmacies in Milan schedule medical waste pickup?
Most pharmacies in Milan schedule pharmaceutical waste pickup quarterly or on an as-needed basis when containers reach capacity. High-volume retail pharmacies or those operating take-back programs may require more frequent pickup given the higher volume of returned and expired medications collected.
What containers do Pharmacies need?
Pharmacies in Milan primarily need pharmaceutical waste containers sized to their expired medication volume — typically a 2 or 5-gallon container for non-hazardous pharmaceuticals and a separate RCRA hazardous waste container for applicable drug categories. Controlled substance waste requires a DEA-compliant disposal container or witnessed destruction service. Sharps containers are needed for in-store sharps disposal programs.
